The event was marked by the presence of project support organisations of MPTB, local administration, members of the District Archaeological Tourism and Culture Council, stakeholders of the project, hoteliers, girls/women who received skill and self-defence training, school and college students, and heads of establishments associated with tourism ventures.
The Safe Tourist Destination for Women initiative by the Madhya Pradesh Tourism Board in collaboration with the Nirbhaya Fund of the Ministry of Women and Child Development and the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India is no less than a benchmark to connect and make women feel safe at tourist destinations to increase the number of women tourists. Under this initiative, 10 thousand women are being trained and linked with tourism related service sector and 40 thousand women and girls are being given self-defence training. Along with women getting employment in the tourism sector, the sense of comfort and security among women tourists especially solo women travellers is increasing. So far, more than 8 thousand women have been trained in 48 job roles in the tourism sector. With the motto of “Dil Khol ke Ghumo, Hindustan ke dil mein aap safe hai” the efforts being made by the Tourism Board in collaboration with the community are leading to a significant increase in the number of female solo tourists in the state.
